Double-weighted statement
This is a hugely ambitious work of over 400 pages and represents the culmination of many years work. Debates on semantic paradox were key in 70s and 80s, but this is the first major new development in the last 20 years. The book puts forward a major new approach to semantic paradox with minimal damage to our notions of truth or core logic. This represents research effort way beyond that required for two normal outputs. In fact the work involved is equivalent of many significant outputs – enough to produce the revival of a whole sub-field of philosophy.
